27th July - Lübeck-Travemünde

I'M BACK ♥

Ande's on her way back to the USA and I'm back to blogging again ♥

[going to post about her 2nd stay at my house asap ♥]

Today I'd like to continue my Hamburg posts!

I already started to blog about July 27 [Hamburg in the morning] & now I'd like to talk about the happenings right after!

So my Mom got quite a few siblings and due to that fact, I've got quite a good number of aunts & uncles. Due to my Mom living in a completely different area I never got to know all of my relatives and I was especially happy to be able to get to know my aunt Karla! She's a Tailoress and I knew she'd would be an interesting person!!

As soon as she opened the door I felt like grabbing my DSLR and shoot everything close to me. Unfortunately that would be kind of rude and so I just happened to take some shots with my iPhone ♥

Can you believe someone is still using a telephone like this? Well yeah, my aunt does.

She married quite a few years ago and her husbands name is "Eule" ( "Owl"); he is obsessed with printing (not with a computer, he's using a really old printing machine !!! ) and the tissue on the right is printed by him. It says "Welcome to the owl nest" ♥ I also envied them for owning such beautiful dinnerware!!!

Some decorations ♥

My aunt is living close to Lübeck-Travemünde and therefore we went to have dinner on a kind of ship-restaurant ♥

I couldn't control myself and had to start taking photos even before the dinner was ready !

Idk why I love this shot so much...but everything looks so well placed! Like a perfect background for some fashion shootings etc...

Hoarding completely covered in save all!

I'm calling one of my friends "Hans" and so I totally had to take a photo of "Hansine" ♥

Jellyfish!!!

For sale ♥

Such a nice and calming place ...!

One of the best Playgrounds I've ever seen ♥

Pirates are coming!!!!!

Completely black ♥

I really hope you guys enjoy those shots ♥ people that are living close to a bay may be bored by looking at ships aso but I'm a city kid and I barely see stuff like that ♥

27th July - Hamburg in the morning

& I'm back ♥

Preparing everything for Ande's stay right now (she'll be here until next week, so probably a small blog-hiatus again...sorry guys), but I already planned this post - here we go ♥

Right after the Lion King Musical we went back to the Hotel and I had my first relaxed night after exams.

Plans for Friday were: Browsing through a few shops in Hamburg  & a little sight seeing in the morning ♥

Small explanation: there are several strike-villages in Germany; Hamburg owns one of them. I saw it for the first time (but it's not as impressing as Frankfurt's is!)

I especially liked the booth you can see below:

It's a kind of "Grab everything you want - give everything you want" booth (for free)!

Heidelberg has the book-only version of this, love the idea.

(my look of the day on the right btw)

Entrance of the small village (the grave says "constitution")

Information booth~

Supermarket around the corner surprised me a lot:

They had tons of "trendy" drinks for rather cheap prices!!

Next to the strike-village there was a small "festival"

That ship-booth was impressing!!

Of course everything in Hamburg is sailor themed ♥

Pirate flag!

Inside of 'Galeria Kaufhof'; I've never seen such a small escalator!

Street Art ♥

Architecture ♥

Stylish trash can ♥

Town Hall ♥

Oh oh oh guys!!! I found a wonderful store ♥♥ some of you may already know it: It's MONKI

Their design is really close to monomanias, just look at the runny black tags! MONKI is owned by H&M and it's a skandinavian brand with Japanese influence ♥skandinavian minimalistic meets japanese street style

Unfortunalety I only bought a very small item...because they have an online shop I thought "okay so let's not spend so much money on your trip, you can buy that stuff online"

HAHAHA - fml of course the 2 items I wanted to order are not available online....

Another cool store I didn't know:

Elbenwald! They offer everything nerdy - like TONS of Harry Potter merchandise, Lord of the Rings, Batman etc...

The weather has been quite amazing ♥ usually I hate 30°C but in Hamburg it obviously doesn't feel like 30°C because there's a mild wind coming from the ocean...♥

Next post will be about my aunts super German home & more ♥ (haha)
